Hello,
I had a hard time to debug some problem with the expansion of some
capture template because org catched the error even when I had set
`debug-on-error'. Would it be possible to make some functions,
e.g. `org-eval' in my case (probably some more?), use
`condition-case-unless-debug' instead of `condition-case'?
Thanks,
Michael.

This is a good idea, except that `condition-case-unless-debug' has
non-obvious side effects that interfere with ERT (Org testing system).
If someone familiar with error handling in Elisp can help with this, it
would be welcome.

What side effects are these?
Thx,
Michael.

In my attempts, the tests started failing for no obvious reason.
Just from changing `condition-case' to `condition-case-unless-debug'.
Though I did not investigate if it happened for every atomic change.

Hmm - mine gave a different result: I cloned the org-mode archive from
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/emacs/org-mode.git, called "make" and
ran the tests as described in the "testing/README". That gave 6 failing
tests.
Then I blindly replaced every occurrence of `condition-case' with
`condition-case-unless-debug' (everywhere but not in the tests), ran
"git clean -xf", then "make" again, and ran the tests again. Again 6
failing tests.
Not sure if I did something wrong.
Michael.

What are those?
I do not have anything failing on my side.

See the attached file. I had been using an up-to-date Emacs master build.

Ah. Different locale (LANG). It is
https://list.orgmode.org/orgmode/D140FA73-9995-4467-963E-00D5964485C0@axelkielhorn.de/
As for condition-case-unless-debug, may you create a patch?
But please do not replace everything blindly - I know for sure that at
least some `condition-case' clauses are there on purpose.

I nearly never had a closer look at the org-mode code (other than
blindly). I would prefer to help differently (like reviewing a patch),
honestly, unless there is really no one more appropriate to find.

I changed instances that appear to be safe.
